Story

Hey :) As some of you may know, I'm running a marathon in less than three weeks. I'm running to raise money for the cancer support charity, Macmillan. If you would like to find out the motivation and maybe sponsor please have a look at my story on the JustGiving website linked here. Any donation small or large would be greatly appreciated. If making a donation, you can use your Facebook when asked for an account name, it’s easiest! Thanks, Megs xx :)

Hi everyone!

I'm running a marathon to raise money for the cancer support charity called Macmillan. My motivation? My uncle Finbarr passed away in May after enduring treatment for non-curable mesothelioma (asbestos cancer) for seven and half years. A love for life, expert medical treatment, and support from carers, family and friends enabled him to live for so long when the normal expectancy might be about one year.

The charity provides specially trained nurses for cancer patients and a 24h helpline, it also supports campaigners for better cancer care. Please help me support the charity and improve patients' quality of life. "To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived – that is to have succeeded" R.W. Emerson.

Where and when is the run? Loch Ness Marathon, Sunday September 27th. Any donation, small or large, is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Megan xx
